What To Do When You Have a Biohazard Emergency

The need for biohazard or hazmat cleaning usually comes with little or no warning. And it can be truly overwhelming.

Dealing with hazardous materials is best left to experienced, certified professionals. But if you find yourself in such a traumatic incident, here are a few important things to remember.

Call Emergency Personnel

Emergency services should be called in a life-threatening situation.

Do Not Attempt Any Cleaning Yourself

Cleaning of any kind could interfere with a possible investigation and expose you to harmful contaminated materials.

3.svg

Stay Out Of The Area

Stay out of any affected areas. There may be potentially dangerous hazardous materials left behind.

4.svg

Treat All Bodily Fluids As Contaminated

Do not touch or handle items that might be contaminated with extremely harmful bodily fluids. And always treat bodily fluids as if they’re contaminated.

Danielle Hartigh

*Exceptional restoration team and true, old school customer service* After a flood at our cabin, we turned to Servpro, and we could not be more grateful. From the first call to the final walkthrough, the team was professional, prepared, and accommodating. They worked around our needs and kept us informed at every step, so we always knew what was happening and what came next. A special thank you to Austin, who led our project. He was kind, communicative, and thorough, and he made a stressful situation feel manageable. He and his crew stayed hours past closing time to finish the job, without any sense of being rushed or inconvenienced. Every member of the team treated our property with care and respect. Even though Servpro is a large company, the experience felt like working with a small-town, family-owned business that genuinely cares about its customers. We would recommend them without hesitation to anyone who needs restoration services. Thank you to Austin and the entire crew for taking such good care of us.

Highly recommend their services in the chance that you need them.

We hope we don't need their services again, but if we do, they will he the first call we make. Thank you!
